What is personal?

 We have been learning what is personal and what is private information online.

Personal information we can share online   e.g. favourite things, hobbies, favourite food, first name, age
Private information we do not share online   e.g. home address, birth date, home phone number, full name. If we are not sure we keep it private.

My name is Viliamu and 9 year old and I am from Tamaki Primary My favourite sport is rugby and sprinting. And my favorite food is chips with chicken. My favourite drink is water and I have a sister and brother. Me and my sister always go to school.
